Re: gained 7 pounds in 10 days!
I'm a runner and when I increased my mileage I started gaining weight.
One thing a lot of people suggested was overestimating the amount of calories burned and eating too much.
It could honestly just be a natural fluctuation. It happens to me sometimes. I would give it another week and then if nothing changes, change your diet.

Re: gained 7 pounds in 10 days!
It could also be partially attributed to increasing muscle mass, since you've been doing weights.

i wouldn't worry- its probably just muscle. you'd have to be eating A LOT of calories to gain that much!

Re: gained 7 pounds in 10 days!
muscle mass takes FOREVER to gain especially in women. You need to seriously eat over your caloric metabolic rate to build muscle. The weight is probably just water weight, hormonal fluctations etc. Don't worry....just stay consistent and check in again after a week!

Did you recently go on or change BCP?
Are you eating too much sodium?
It's not muscle - it's far too soon for that.
Are your clothes becoming too tight?
